Rebirth of Basketball Boy

"Huh?" Yan Lingfeng's expression just relaxed. After hearing Zhu Yao's shout, he immediately turned into bitter gourd again, turning around slowly and looking at Zhu Yao innocently.

"Come, come, come and sit. Let's have a good chat today." Zhu Yao bent down and wiped the edge of the flower bed, then sat down, smiling and waving to Yan Ling, the expression on his face Like grandma wolf who tricked Little Red Riding Hood to open the door.

"Oh." Yan Lingfeng nodded reluctantly, shrank her neck tremblingly and walked over, cautiously sat down beside Zhu Yao, and at the same time raised the alarm danger in his heart to the highest level, because according to his memory, this At that time, Zhu Yao was the most insidious time. As the saying goes, hiding the knife in the smile, Zhu Yao is the fighting tiger among the smiling tigers.

"Ling Feng, tell me, what is your ideal?" Zhu Yao put an arm on Yan Lingfeng's shoulder and asked with concern.

"Is it ideal?" Yan Lingfeng squinted his eyes and looked at the sky and replied with a pensive tone: "I used to have a dream for my wife and children to warm the kangtou, and Nongfu Spring has a lot of land, but now I don't know what my ideal is."

"Um..." After hearing Yan Lingfeng's great ideals, Zhu Yao was obviously swallowed, and after a hard swallowing of saliva, he asked: "Then you want to see the American basketball culture?"

"American...basketball culture?" Yan Lingfeng has never thought about this issue. Although he is not muddled since his rebirth, he is still at a loss.The first important thing in front of me is of course to make money, but Yan Lingfeng, who lacks the start-up capital, can’t turn into silver even if he has gold fingers, so he hasn’t taken any action all the time. As for other things, Yan Lingfeng is true. There is no systematic plan.

"Yes, American basketball culture is a real culture. In the United States, college basketball and street basketball have their own unique culture. I personally think that it is different from the commercial talents of NBA, NCAA and street basketball. Basketball that can truly represent the United States. The full name of NCAA is NationalCommitteeAssociationAmerica, which translates as the meaning of the American College League Championship. It is an association formed by more than one thousand universities in the United States. It includes basketball, rugby, ice hockey and baseball. Sports, but because basketball is the most popular and most successful among them, the mention of NCAA basically refers to the NCAA basketball league, especially the NCAA first-level basketball league. In the United States, the popularity of NCAA In fact, it will far surpass the NBA. When NCAA enters the final semi-finals, the popularity will reach a very high level, even comparable to the momentum of the US election. Sports TV stations such as ESPN will temporarily leave the NBA aside and follow it all day. For special broadcasts, the ratings are always high. The American people, including the upper-class people, are always happy to analyze the game forward and predict the outcome, because at this time they will find a sense of belonging. It is similar to the commercial league NBA. In contrast, NCAA players are not yet mature in mind and body, but they will go all out for every game. In college basketball, the tactics and coaching thinking must be more rigorous and meticulous. In the system of determining the outcome of the game, the suspense of the outcome will be very big, the competition will be more intense and cruel, NCAA youth, sincere, crazy, with unparalleled charm, but because domestic TV stations rarely broadcast reports, so the domestic basketball hobby The readers don’t know much about the NCAA. Only when you come to the United States and are there in person can you feel the excitement of American college basketball."

Zhu Yao said so much in one breath. Like a few Jiazhen, Yan Lingfeng was also fascinated. He really knew very little about NCAA. He knew that the two generations of flying men Jordan and Carter were from North Carolina. I also know that Duke's "Coach K" has become the head coach of the dream team, but his knowledge of the NCAA is still poor.

Zhu Yao paused, then looked at Yan Lingfeng and asked with a smile: "Listening to what I have said, is there any kind of enthusiasm that you want to experience NCAA basketball for yourself?"

"Indeed." Yan Lingfeng nodded honestly. He was really tempted. If his life plan was CUBA or CBA before then, Zhu Yao's words would undoubtedly open another window for him.He remembers clearly that his fellow Zhang Zhaoxu was famous in the NCAA and was selected for the national team before returning to the domestic competition, but Zhang Zhaoxu should still be working on the basketball team of Yantai Sports School.

Since Zhang Zhaoxu can walk out of his life through this path, why not?Thinking of this, Yan Lingfeng's eyes flashed a scorching light. He believed that with his decent basketball talent and unremitting efforts, he could receive an invitation from an American university.

Zhu Yao noticed Yan Lingfeng’s gaze, and the light of the conspiracy flickered from the corner of his eyes. He patted Yan Lingfeng’s shoulder lightly and said meaningfully: “There is one more thing I forgot to tell you. In NCAA, To play, the average academic performance must be above 2.0. As long as one fails, you will not be eligible for the competition. These regulations are mainly for declaring that universities are for education, so athletes should still take education as their main goal. Moreover, compared with college students in the United States, the difficulties faced by foreign monks like us are much greater. The first is the difference in language and living habits. If you cannot speak fluent English, it will be difficult for you to integrate into it. In the team. Actually, in my opinion, the talents of Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi are almost the same, but why did Yao Ming become the NBA's super center center in a short time, and Wang Zhizhi is still just a bench rotation player? There are many reasons. But I think one of the main reasons is that Yao Ming's English level is much higher than Wang Zhizhi. I mean, do you understand?"

Yan Lingfeng nodded slowly. He did understand that the reason Zhu Yao wasted so much saliva was actually changing the soup instead of changing the medicine. The fundamental purpose was to urge him to study hard, but Yan Lingfeng admitted that Zhu Yao changed the bowl of soup He was very tempted. In order to taste the taste of this bowl of soup, he might really be able to bear the bitterness of the medicine.

"Teacher, tell me your story, can you?" Yan Lingfeng only knows about Zhu Yao's past. Hearing how much he knows about American basketball, he couldn't help but become curious.

"Me?" Zhu Yao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "What do I have to say? The past is over, and it doesn't make much sense to turn it out again. But if you want to listen, I'll talk to you. You know Song Tao Huh?"

Yan Lingfeng nodded lightly. Of course, Song Tao knew that he had been a flag bearer of the Olympic Games.It seems that he was the first player selected by the NBA in China, but unfortunately for good luck. Less than two months after he signed the NBA contract, he suffered a comminuted fracture of his knee during a domestic training session, which ended his basketball journey. .

Zhu Yao closed his eyes slightly and sighed slowly: "I and Song Tao were in a batch. At that time, the two of us called the golden double guns of the Shandong Youth Basketball Team, one inside and one outside, galloping invincible in the domestic arena. But then we two I personally chose a completely different development path. He followed the career trajectory of most domestic athletes, from youth teams, provincial teams, and then to the national team. But I insisted on going abroad to play at the time, which was undoubtedly very rebellious at the time. Therefore, after my trip, the national news media unanimously banned me from news. After I arrived in the United States, I finally got the favor of Wake Forest University with my own efforts. At that time, Wake Forest University was only a business school. It’s famous, the atmosphere of basketball is not so strong, and the Wake Forest University Deacons are not well known. After all, we didn’t have Tim Duncan at the time, but I really liked my team, even though I was a point guard. Not the team’s starting point, but I’m still very happy because I learned a lot from the team’s starting point guard Boggs."

"What happened later?" Yan Lingfeng asked eagerly. He was only 1.6 meters tall, but he also knew Boggs, who had a big hat over "Gorilla" Ewing. It was not too much for Zhu Yao to substitute for such a person. Decline.

"Later..." Zhu Yao smiled bitterly, "Later, Song Tao was injured, with a comminuted knee fracture, and I was also injured. It was also a torn cruciate ligament of the knee. The two of us chose different basketball paths. But the result was the same, all because of the knee, we had to say goodbye to our sports career."

"Then teacher, do you regret it?" In Yan Lingfeng's eyes at this moment, Zhu Yao is no longer a class teacher who can eat people, more like a year-end acquaintance of him, so he asked such words.

"Regret?" Zhu Yao frowned and shook his head slightly, "Why ask?"

"Although Song Tao retired early in the first year, he was successful and he was always remembered in the history of the development of Chinese basketball. But you..." Yan Lingfeng asked slowly. Although this question is very unkind, he still Must ask, because this question is related to the doubts in his heart.

"What do you regret, do not regret it!" Zhu Yao was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Men, you are responsible for your own decision. No matter whether the decision is right or wrong, you have no right to regret it. !"

"I think, I understand." Yan Lingfeng nodded heavily, then looked at Zhu Yao from the bottom of his heart and said: "Teacher, thank you!"

"Haha, thank me for what I did? As long as you don't mess with me, you are the best thank you." Zhu Yao laughed and stood up and patted his butt, then waved his hand and said: "Hurry up and go back to class! By the way, if what I expected is good, we should be the one representing Shuiyun in the Yantai Regional Basketball Tournament!"

Yan Lingfeng nodded, then turned and walked towards the classroom.Along the way, he was thinking about what Zhu Yao said just now. Although Chinese basketball cannot be said to be weak and poor, it can even occupy such a small position on the world basketball map, but China's basketball is far from it. powerful.Especially Chinese basketball players, who have been named Yao for thousands of years, have been entangled by injuries throughout their careers.Others, such as Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, etc., who are famous in the country, dazzled everyone as soon as they arrived in the NBA.Yan Lingfeng in his previous life used to have an unattainable dream, that is, to become the first defender in China to log in to the NBA, but as he grew older, and Sun Dasheng turned out to occupy this spot, his dream It was naturally shattered.Now Yan Lingfeng has a new dream, which is no longer out of reach, and no longer a fantasy, because his eyes have shifted from the NBA to the NCAA, which is undoubtedly easier to become a reality. dream.

He went back to the classroom with random thoughts. The second physics class had already begun. Yan Lingfeng stood at the door of the classroom in a daze and shouted a "report". The physics teacher who was nearly sixty years old was very rigorous in his studies and put down the handouts. After turning his head to look at him, he asked, "Why did you go?"

"Um, Mr. Zhu just called me something." Yan Lingfeng didn't expect the physics teacher to have such a question, and replied after a long pause.

"Oh... let's go in." The physics teacher looked at Yan Lingfeng suspiciously, and then slowly nodded his head and motioned Nunu.

In the eyes of all the classmates who were either curious or caring or gloating, Yan Lingfeng walked back to his seat quickly, and then pretended to take out the physics textbook and sat in full jeopardy, staring at the physics teacher who was continuing to teach.

For the entire class, Yan Lingfeng maintained this action and did not change his posture until the physics teacher crouched and left the classroom.Han Dengyun stood up from his seat, leaned in front of Yan Lingfeng and shook his chubby palm in front of him, and shouted in a low voice: "Heaven and earth are spirits, anxious as a law, and the elder monarch arrives. Ten demons quickly dodge!"

"Fuck you!" Yan Lingfeng stretched out his hand to pull away Han Dengyun's trotters, glared at him and said, "What are you doing?"

Han Dengyun slumped aggrievedly and said: "I think you are like a scam, so I will kindly help you cast a spell to exorcise ghosts. It's really kind of unrequited! I wasted a lot of true yuan for my pure Yang man. But I didn't expect to hear the cry of'Wang Wang'..."

"Go to hell!" Yan Lingfeng couldn't tell Han Dengyun whispering around and calling himself a mad dog with ignorance. He immediately raised his leg and kicked unceremoniously.Han Dengyun hurriedly dodged, smiling hippiely and begging for mercy: "Brother Lingfeng, the younger brother is wrong! I don't dare anymore, by the way, why did the pig demon call you to go? It's not you and sister Xueer who caused the Dongchuang incident, right? ?"

"Send your sister!" Yan Lingfeng kicked out again, of course he was just doing it, not really kicking Han Dengyun. When he was considering whether to talk to Han Dengyun, he looked up and saw the front row. Lu Yunxue's concerned gaze, hurriedly showed her smooth teeth and smiled at her, then gently shook his head to signal that he was okay.
